Turn tagged Asana tasks into focused content reviews
A tag can signal that a task needs a specific kind of attention. Notis can use the task and tag context to query Contentful and report what may be relevant.
Trigger
Tag Added to Task
Triggers when a tag is added to a task. Note: Asana's event structure is inverted for tag events — the resource is the task and the parent is the tag. So parent.gid gives the tag GID.
Action
GraphQL Content API Query
Tool to execute a GraphQL query against a specified space and environment. Use when fetching Contentful content via GraphQL after obtaining or providing a valid token.
Why this helps
Tags can signal an important review need, but they do not bring existing content into view by themselves.
- Use an existing task signal to prompt research
- Bring possible supporting entries into view
- Receive a short review brief in a chosen channel
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Asana and Contentful graphql once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to use the task and tag context to query Contentful and summarize relevant entries.
- 4Pick Asana Tag Added to Task, choose a report channel, then test with one real tagged task.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis read the tag name from this trigger?
For Asana tag events, the parent object provides the tag GID while the resource is the task. If the tag name is not available in the event context, provide the needed tag context or rely on task details.
Does the workflow change the tag or task?
No. The listed Contentful action queries content and can report results; it does not edit Asana.
